Good luck for the driving test Jelly Belly!
My day's been alright, school and relaxing as usual..
Still haven't done any revision.. Not good I know but as I say this it's still not going into my head!
well done on the offers and Good luck with the driving test. I havent started learning yet. I am going to in the summer.
Essay mania here, and its driving me crazy.
Someone in my science class managed to injure themselves with a pipette! (long glass tube), he had to go to hospital in the end!..That was the drama of the day...:p
I had 5 cups of tea today! :eek: Caffine rush :p
IB Friends are back from Wales :cheer: Didn't think they were back till Sunday so happy now :p
My best friend managed to end up on crutches (She clicked her knee and couldn't move it) packing! :rotfl: She rang me tonight saying "I had to go to Casualty, the real one! I spent all week climbing mountains and canoeing and I injure myself packing! " :lol:
Having a really good day, knowing it's the weekend tomorrow!..
I got an A in my science coursework.. I mean wtf.. 2 marks of an A* what's going on, Science is my worst subject! I got a C in it last year! Hey not complaining.. :rolleyes::P
Going shopping tomorrow! x
I used to always get shocks like that, the essay you rush and coudnt care less about as you hate the subject you get the best grade in. Its like what!!! Well done on it anyway, its always nice to have some high marks in the bag before the exam.
I'm still piled under a load of work. I'm having a free weekend i think, i'm meeting my friend for lunch in the village and then watching sport i think. Oh and we need a visit to IKEA for a chair. the one i have a uni is hurting my bag and its kind of important as i am spending half my life at my desk.
Tomorrow back to Bangor, and then not home till Christmas, although that is the 15th December, so its not long in the scheme of things. Although all my essays are due then.
sorry bout the rant.
Heya, well its been a bit since I posted in here, But had a good fews days not that my cold is fading :) Just got a lot of coursework to do and yesterday for children and need I raised over £50, it was last minute but still proud and had to work last night so missed the show but oh well. Im really busy at the moment, cos I have college work and im working and then I have a dance exam coming up
Aww, I hope you manage to get it all sorted out, Katy. I hate the big pile of work, although I don't necessarily have to hand in my Media coursework as the teacher got us to do the piece again as that is the one that the most people were struggling on. My teacher said all of my coursework was done well, so I have to start nagging him to tell me what they actually are. He only told me about my Pop Music one.
Sorry to hear about what happened at the train station, StarsOfCCTV. I would have probably of fainted if it was me.
I have my mocks soon as well. I'm not really stressing, although I really should be as I'm predicted 7A's and 3B's. Typical me I'm not happy with that. I got my mock timetable which is the worst thing in history. Most people have three days during the course of the two weeks of mocks on which they have no exams, and mine just had to be all in a row at the beginning. First exam is also Maths, which I don't think I have a hope of passing, regardless of being predicted a B by a teacher that hates me and getting a 7 in my SAT. I haven't even handed in my coursework because I can't do it and don't feel that I can ask for help. Last one is business, which I would really rather have first as I love it and should get an A*, which I will probably stress about nearer the time of the real exam. Also have to do a mock for a DME for Geography, and doing some work on the resource booklet has made me hate Geography even more than I already did. The real thing is also on airports and I haven't even been to one. It goes on until after school so I will have another transport problem on that day.
I also have my option evening for A Level on Tuesday, which I am looking forward to, and although I have ideas of what I'd like to take, I keep changing them about every three days.
I was supposed to be going shopping with my friend today but it was looking doubtful due to my dad's reluctance to pick up my friend. We didn't go though as her grandad passed away last Friday, and I haven't heard from her since lunchtime last Saturday when she told me. I really don't know what to do for the best, and I'm starting to worry about her.
My gran went back into hospital last week after having been out of it for 16 days. We found out that the radiotheraphy has shrunk the tumour though, so she should be having more of that as she's only had one lot. They're also looking into other forms of treatement.
About the hospital Lea - maybe they took the outpatients bit out like they did here, as on Boxing Day my aunt had to drive my great aunt to a hospital further away as they wouldn't do anything at the one just in the town.
Sorry for the essay, lol. It's obvious I haven't been on here in a while. I really should be getting back to revision, as well...
Thanks Katy! That was just my one piece of coursework but I'm happy.. Hopefully I will get a B in science instead of a C again!.. Who knows maybe an A! :lol:
Oh btw sorry about what you heard and for what happened StarsofCCTV.. Must have been quite a shock :( How are you feeling now? x
Today I went shopping.. Bought some Clinique make-up, new gloves, two tops (one for the practise interview thing) and a new lovely bag for school!
God it's mad in there! (the mall).. I got a bit annoyed at times as you could barely move.. it's only mid-Nov!! I dread going there back again in December to have my hair cut but hey should be worth it :lol: Plenty of Christmas sales going on already!! Overall had a pretty good day ;] x
Oh and Kim.. I have my mocks next week and the week after that.. Study leave but only go in for mocks.. I can't believe you are predicted 7A's and 3B's! That's amazing! I'm predicted 2A's 2B's and 6C's.. :crying: To be honest I was expecting so much than that so I will step up my gear when I go back to school. I will start revising tomorrow, if I'm not doing anything and Monday and Tuesday I have the day off as it's only for Spanish and French learners so definatly be revising then!..
Kim just hand in your coursework and see, make sure you have a copy and see what your teacher says even though you don't get along.. Stupid idiot but still.. it counts towards your grade! x
I think I have an idea on what I want to take for my A Level's.. Hoping to go to my school's sixth form because apparently it's really good out of the whole bourough so you know, might as well :lol:.. I think the option evening is around Jan/Feb so long time to go!
Myform tutor pinned up a list of sixth forms and college deadline dates. She casually said some of the dates have passed and not to complain to her about it because she only got the list. Fine okay.. But when we asked if she could print us all a copy each she said that would be wasting paper. Sorry but wtf, I went mental.. They just handed out Christmas draw raffle things on TWO pieces of paper! Pointless and most kids just throw it in the bin, this is like our life?!:angry:
Hope you gran gets better Kim xx
Thanks :) (to everyone else too), I'm ok now, just a bit freaked out at the time..I'm glad I didn't walk up the platform like I usually do when I finish at 5..Quote:

I got my provisional driving liscence on Thursday, and I've got a lesson for tommorow so I've been looking forward to that :) My best friend invited some people over hers tonight and we all just messed around on facebook, watched TV and ate bad food, had a nice evening :) Didn't do much in the day, I have to start on my chemistry coursework in the morning!
I am back at Uni and feeling a whole lot bettter, still got heaps to do workwise but everyone is in the same boat. I think as i was at home last week i was enjoying the home comforts to much and i got a bit down. I was so up for staying at home and dropping out completly.
Anyway i can't sleep so i have come on here, should probably try and get to bed soon as i have a 9 AM lecture that i should really be a wake for.
My business teacher gave a presentation to Year 10 on Northern Ireland this afternoon. He was doing a favour for another teacher because he served there during the Troubles but he had us as well.
I was almost crying when he told them about how he saw his friend get blown to pieces and another one lose his hand from a roadside bomb on New Year's Eve in 1988. The lad who lost a hand had multiple cuts and he died within fifteen minutes of the bomb going off. His wife arrived a few minutes after midnight, only five minutes after he died. She lifted the blanket and said "I came to wish you happy new year" then left.
I've started some revision. My mum isn't too happy with the 40-odd pieces of paper with physics formulae on that are on my walls. I haven't told her that there is lots more still to go up :rolleyes: All she seems to be bothered about is the blu-tack pulling the paint off the walls or leaving marks and damaging the wardrobe with sellotape :confused: Good job it's parent's evening next Wednesday, I can pass the blame on to my teacher :rotfl:
I'm really getting into this revision lark, I lay in bed on a night and I get really happy when I look at my 40 pages of formulae on the walls. Then I read my biology text book and I get even happier :D The best thing is, I've only had the sheets up a few days and I'm already memorizing things. I walk around the house reciting formulae in my head :rotfl:
Seeing the cardiologist on Wednesday. Maybe after two years they might decide if I actually have something wrong with my heart. Personally, I'm not bothered either way. I've survived 18 years without dropping dead and there's no treatment for WPW so why worry about it? It'll just be another diagnosis to add to my list and another thing that stops me from doing things :thumbsdow
Woke up this morning let the cat outside turned back round
BANG! Into a door broken nose :lol:
Stupid cat :wall:
:lol: that must have hurt. Hope you're ok now.
Yeah I'll live just got a nose like a quaver :lol:
You got no college or anything today?
I'm in this afternoon. Our day is a bit wierd. We have lessons from 9am until 11am then from 1pm to 3pm. We also get two days off during the week. Mine are split, one full day (Wednesday) and a morning and afternoon.
Got physics this afternoon. I'm in no mood for it, I just want to go to bed.
Should have been down the pub with the 2 spare hours. Amateur student :D
:lol: I should have done an A2 past paper for this afternoon in my spare two hours but I couldn't be bothered. I'll just tell my teacher I've been revising in other ways, which I have.
I broke a William's bottle in biology this morning. We were making Agar jelly to grow cultures and we had to sterilise the top of it in a bunsen. I left mine in the heat for too long, the neck of the bottle melted and fell off and my Agar solution went all over the desk.
:lol:Quote:

Had a good day yesterday and today.. This boy I think is pretty cute came around to pick some notes :p Made my day haha.. Revision is going alright.. First exam tomorrow, ICT then Business..
Only downside is that I am feeling ill and I think I'm losing my voice like I did a month ago.. Not good, I hope my cough dosen't get in the way of my exam because then it's a disaster personally.. Don't know what to do about that but taking some Ibrophen (sp?)..
Back to revision! x
Aw bless ya. Very bust of luck with your exams I'm sure you'll be fine. All you can do is your bestQuote:

For a cough my family have always used Apple Cider Vinegar. It's an old trend in our family and is highly successful. Give it a try trust me i almost guarantee it will be practically gone by tomorrow
I've had one of the best physics lessons ever. I'm so hyper. We were doing individual research on nuclear reactors to present it to the class halfway through the lesson. Because there are only three students and we weren't doing any structured work as such it was basically a free for all. We were working on my teacher's laptop so he couldn't do any work so he just sat talking with us about politics, religion, why some teachers shouldn't be teachers and how to handle kids misbehaving and comedy and loads of other random things.
I get on really well with my teacher so we have a good laugh and he winds me up. He's started calling me "thing" recently.
I did do some work, it's an interesting topic, I'm definatly going to do some more research on it. I've got to prepare some handouts for next lesson for the others.
Gosh, I waffle on a bit.
:rotfl: :rotfl:
Best day I've had in ages :D
I got offers from the 2 more courses i've applied for at University. Very very happy!! :D
Good to hear you two have had good days :thumbsup:
And congratulations Abi fantastic news :bow:
Fantastic news Abi. :thumbsup: And glad you had a good day JB. :)
I've had a rather good day..I got my essay back from Drama and got a B, which I was really pleased with as some people's essays got ungraded - she said my essay was one of the best in the class which I was over the moon about. :D
Also went to a meeting where we finally sorted out the newsletter/Budding Journalists conflict - we've all decided that it would be better if both the newsletter and Journalists worked as a partnership, as things would become a lot easier for all of us. :)
Well done Abi, you must be really pleased :)
Ahhhh I have so much work to do tonight, but I keep getting distracted :(
I've just found a montage video on youtube of my friend who died last Christmas and it really upset me. I still can't believe he's gone, it doesn't seem real. He's been dead eleven months now and I still can't accept that he's not here anymore.
Well done on the offer Abi. Sorry to hear about your friend JB one of my friends died to years ago in february and i still find it difficult to accept its gone. I think its something you won't get over for a long time.
I am in the library working on my assignment before i have to go to my economics lecture.
Right, Geography coursework down, Maths to go. Argh! He's making us do it in the lessons now as well, and having us go back over our Statistics coursework and mine is thick enough already! lol
I'm also the only person in my Business class to have finished the coursework, so I get Friday's lesson to revise, which will help. Wasn't too impressed today when a boy Business asked me in Geography to explain what mergers were, only for him to scarper at break time, at which time I had said I would explain.
A Level options evening yesterday, because we have to make provisional choices and apply by January 11th in order for them to be able to accomodate as many students' preferences as possible in September. It wasn't that good, because we could only go to four subjects. I went to look at Economics and she did Business in the same one, so then I had another session to pick and English wasn't in that particular time slot. I don't think I will do Maths for AS now, so I'll ask my teacher about English tomorrow. Definitely going to do Business, Economics and Psychology, so it's just deciding on a last subject.
My school now seems to have decided that the most effective way to prevent bullying is to make us all sit in assembly and listen to an article on the effects of bullying.
Now for revision...
Good luck with the revision Kim. :)
I've had a rather good day..my schools page is successfully in the local newspaper which i'm happy about, and I got another essay back from Drama which I got a C on so i'm happy. :D
My best friend is having an operation on her knee tomorow, she'd been having problems with it for a while, the packing in Wales did it in :p
They think she's torn some cartalidge but they're not sure because it's on the left side of her knee which is unusual.
I'm worried but I'm sure she'll be ok :) Talked with her on the phone for half an hour, I've had one operation before I know what it's like so I was just telling her what it was like, I think I made her feel a bit better. At least I hope so :p I'm going round on Saturday, I think I'll buy something tommorow in the shops for her to cheer her up (she'll be on crutches for 6 weeks and have weekly physiotherapy for 3 months!)
I Went out of biology today and there were 6 ambulances outside! Apparently there was an explosion in the chemistry lab and some people were taken off to be treated for carbon monoxide poisoning and minor cuts and bruises. Don't think it was major explosion though because there was apparently 3 fire engines which had left by the time we got there. I'm going to go to Chemistry tommorow..but I have a suspicion it might be cancelled :p
:eek: I never realised chemistry was such a dangerous subject to take!!! :eek: Glad I stuck to the humanities....:lol:Quote:

We had a Chemistry lab explosion once. It was my forms fault as well, we put wooden splints in the gas taps and lit them. It was ace.
Just watching Hollyoaks now, i'm bored and can't sleep.
We used to mess around with the gas taps putting a match to the taps then switching them on when the teacher wasn't looking.Quote:

I'm still up doing biology coursework. Deadline is tomorrow and I've been at it all night. I think another hour should do it :thumbsdow I've got to go in early tomorrow to print it off an modify some tables.
:rotfl: The most my class got up to in Maths was spraying deodorant on the teacher..(who did smell..a bit).
Heard it was the teachers fault...our physics teacher said it was a chemical reaction, too much pressure. glass exploded. According to my physics teacher when you're 16 and over if you don't put lab goggles when your told it's not the teachers fault..I bet the person who got glass in their eye (ouch!) is regretting their decision!
Bumped into my friends sister on the way home, she said she was back home so I guess it went ok :)
Also on the way home I think my train ran over a piece of wood or something.. I was texting, so not holding on to anything, and there was a bump and the driver really put on the brakes (lets just say I'm glad I was near the glass partition otherwise I would've gone flying :lol:) A while later the train started moving again. Really really slowly. I guess it'll have to go until the end of the line. I'm glad I finished early. The trains are going to be really slow behind that one :p
Me and my Dad are going shopping in a bit. This may be interesting :lol: Although I have no idea when I'm going to do my Biology coursework! My Physics teacher once said he thought you should do an hour per mark. It's worth 21 marks :( I'm going to see a friend's show tommorow evening, Saturday morning I've got a driving lesson, Saturday evening I'm going to my friend's, Sunday afternoon I'm going to a friend's party.
This doesn't leave much time for work :p Friday and Saturday are going to be very late nights I predict :rolleyes:
Today wasn't to bad for me.
School majorly sucks for me at the moment. I've failed all three nabs that i've been given. If i fail the reading one in english then I'll put down a grade and i don't want to be put down a grade:(
My anger went today; People calling me by my middle name and calling me ugly and all this crap althrough i do try my hardest to ignore i can't seem to and my anger gets the better of me.
So thats my day hasn't been to bad! Apart from losing my anger.
You don't seem to have much luck with trains do you :rotfl:Quote:

My coursework is pretty rubbish, I was up until 2am this morning trying to get it finished. My conclusion consists of one sentence :wall: I couldn't think of anything to write that I hadn't already said and I was knackered so I gave up and went to bed.
I was thinking that about Katie :lol:. Remind me never to go on a train when you do :lol:.
Aww Jelly, staying up that late doing it probably didn't help. Try again when you feel all fresh lol!!
I'm soooo excited at the moment. This weeks gone well fast!!!! I'm going to DisneyLand Paris on MONDAY!!!! :D First holiday abroad :cool:. And it's with the college, i.e my mates, so it's going to be awesome!!!
Deadline was today so I had no choice. I usually leave things to the last minute but I think I left it a little bit too late this time :rolleyes:Quote:

From Monday til Friday, but only have 3 full days there. Going into Paris as well.
